Be careful out there when encountering angry people behind the wheels. People are nuts.

Snow & wind chill in the forecast

What's a little mistake of $980 million here or there?

I'm informed in the post that follows this one the NY Post was wrong to say Lance would pocket $1 billion from his investment in Uber. Here's the Post's story:https://nypost.com/2018/12/07/lance-armstrong-is-poised-to-become-billionaire-despite-doping-downfall/?

Now go to Bloomberg's story about this in the following post. I've edited my/this original post here because a later correction never catches up with an original error.

Club Members,

You are all welcome to attend the Tenafly Bicycle Workshop Custom Lab Launch event on February 23rd from 2-6PM. 

We will be joined by our friends from Seven Cycles, Alchemy Bicycle Company, VohHof Cycles, Metal Guru, Shimano, SRAM, and more. If you have ever considered buying a custom bike or would just like to know more about the process, please come on by for an awesome free event. There will also be some promotional deals from our vendors for all the attendees. We hope to see many of you there.

...a political candidate who holds her first campaign event at a bicycle shop! (Shift Cyclery and Coffee Bar in Eau Claire, Wis. - and yes, there's a photo showing bikes hanging from the ceiling.) Unfortunately, it doesn't indicate any relationship between the candidate and cycling...but still....

How is it that I can who is attending and see the sign up button to all the SIG/STS signups but the R-STS ?

What gives there are only a handful of people signed up ?

I’m happy (and humbled) to report that the 40 participant spots for the 2019 D-SIG have filled. The NYCC website does not include a waitlist function for SIG sign-ups, so if you missed out but would like to be considered for a spot in the ’19 D, please contact me and/or my D-SIG co-captain John Siemens (NYCC username jsiemens); we’ll add you to our informal waitlist and get in touch if a spot opens up.

The PA must have gotten the word about their de-icer. The path was almost totally clean today. There are still occasional clumps of it going across, but you can ride around them. (Do NOT ride thru them! From a distance they look like little patches of slushy snow that you'd normally ride right thru. They're not...so don't.)

I stopped to read the label on one of the bags left on the side of the path. It's calcium chloride pellets..."premium snow & ice melt."
